🌷 A Far-Far-Away-Horizon...
Poetess: Tilottama Vijay Lele

We stay under same roof...
Happily for years-n-years...
We think we know d person in-n-out
But in reality, that's so untrue...

What we know is only a small part
We hardly recognise his heart...
What's visible is a tip of a glacier
D rest is hidden well under water...

Der comes a time when we see,
Absolutely nothing in his eyes...
As if we're in front of a vast sea
So near n yet like a far-away-tree...

We find his eyes totally blank...
Though bodily he's in front of us,
But his heart n Mind R really absent
As if roaming on other planets...

We feel like he's a total stranger,
For a time being, lost somewhere...
Or hiding things for no apparent reason
Like a peaceful / wild unpredictable Ocean

Der R various phases of d ocean...
High-tides R when Der's a full Moon
Ocean gulps all kinds of stuff within...
On low-tides it throws that out like Sins

We imagine that we know Everything...
But realistically it's d opposite thing
We see things in limited dimension...
D complete picture remains unknown...

A human Life n Mind R complicated...
It's intricate nature can't be predicted
Our knowledge is extremely limited...
Yet d humanity factor is uninhibited

We can't fully understand d Ocean...
Likewise we can't fully know any person
He's just like a far-far-away-Horizon
Changing colours like a chameleon...
